Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Students are capable of recognizing the mineral contents and the microstructure of rocks in petrographic thin sections, to classify rocks and to infer formation conditions from polarization microscopy. These competences were acquired in the course of exercises in the polarization microscopy lab.

Assessment and permitted materials

Two submissions of thin section protocols, two written tests
TL 1: 30.4.2024 Basics of petrology and thermodynamics.
TL 2: 15.5.2024 Petrology and microscopy of metamorphic rocks
TL 3: 05.6.2024 Thin section protocol on an igneous rock.
TL 4: 12.6.2024 Petrology of igneous rocks
Calculators are allowed as aids during the tests.
Students are responsible for checking that these dates do not conflict with other course activities immediately after they are announced.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The maximum score for exams 1 and 3 is 20 points each, the maximum score for the written exams is 30 points each. For passing the course at least 50% of the total maximum score need to be achieved in a cumulative manner.
Absence during a TL will result in 0 points. Only in exceptional cases an extra date for taking a TL exam can be arranged.

5 = <50
4 = 50 - 62
3 = 62,5 - 74,5
2 = 75 - 87
1 = 87,5 - 100
